The photo at left, taken in 1963, shows the Doughboy survived in good condition until then. The photo above, taken only a few years later, shows that damage had occurred, with the rifle now bent and missing its sling, and the right arm bent forward. The statue still exists in this condition at its new location at Columbia Falls.
